Well appointed accommodation with a beautiful view. A narrow ‘bumpy’ lane leads to the property and a very steep driveway with numerous steps leads up to the entrance. Comfy bed in good sized dual aspect bedroom and en-suite with shower over bath. A very sunny position, we stayed during heatwave and property did get very hot!
